I Am Going! (Elephant & Piggie Hb)

Description

Gerald is careful. Piggie is not.
Piggie cannot help smiling. Gerald can.
Gerald worries so that Piggie does not have to.
Gerald and Piggie are best friends.
In "I Am Going!" Piggie ruins a perfectly good day
by telling Gerald he is going. But if Piggie goes, who will
Gerald play ping-pong and wear silly hats with?
